Box Office Report of Byomkesh Phire Elo

Byomkesh Phire Elo is another thriller film by Anjan Dutt. The plot thickens with each twist and turn. Thanks to Anjan Dutta for presenting such a thriller and suspense movie in this winter. Byomkesh Phire Elo is more compact and precise compared to previous two films of Anjan Dutta on Byomkesh. Abir Chatterjee is perfect choice in the role of detective. Swasata Chatterjee as Ajit in this film has less scope of acting but he has proved his class. 

Biswajit Chakraborty, Chandan Sen and Kaushik Sen have done their jobs perfectly. New faces in the film are Rahul , Anajana Bose , Ena Saha and Ankita Chakraborty and they have done justice with their character.

Strong cast line of the film Byomkesh Phire Elo and their roles are as below:

Abir Chatterjee

This film is Abir’s third film as Byomkesh and all the three are in Anjan Dutta’s film. In this film Byomkesh doesn't take Ajit's help in solving the case.

Saswata Chatterjee

This is also the third Byomkesh film of Saswata Chatterjee as Ajit.

Chandan Sen

Chandan Sen plays Ajoy, the eldest son of Beni Prosad. Beni Prosad is murdered in the film and Ajoy is one of the prime suspects.

Kaushik Sen

Kaushik Sen is playing the role of a bad man in the film Byomkesh Phire Elo.  Kaushik Sen is Beni Prosad's alcoholic son-in-law  who is also suspected for the murder.

Ena Saha

Rahul

It was a sheer delight to work with Anjan Dutt, my youth icon. Secondly, I'm a great fan of Byomkesh. I play a distant relative of Beni Prosad who is much better off than the other family members. I was asked not to shave throughout the film and my character's body language also arouses suspicion.

Ankita Chakraborty

This is Ankita’s first Byomkesh film and she is Medini in the film Byomkesh Phire Elo. Medini is a girl from Bihar who works as a cook in Ajoy's house. Medini also becomes a suspect of the murder case.
